Fab Finds for the Week of 11 March 2012

Each week I write about some of the more interesting items that I’ve come across, which are not usually mentioned in other places in the genealogical blogosphere (with exceptions, of course).

Here are the fab finds for this week, brought to you in between bottle feedings and teething episodes (my son’s — not mine). For previous weeks’ fab finds, choose the category “Fab Finds” or just click here.

The San Fernando Valley Historical Society’s Pioneer Cemetery Committee are looking for volunteer researchers who are very knowledgeable in genealogy to help solve the mystery of nameless dead buried at the Pioneer cemetery. Many of the gravestones were stolen or vandalized, and volunteers will pore over old newspapers, church records, and other documents in an attempt to identify those buried at the Cemetery.
